Antique Victorian Walnut Salon Chair C.1880

19th century
Description

A late Victorian walnut salon chair in the Rococo Revival style, the high, intricately carved and pierced back centred by a shaped upholstered panel, set over a generous seat raised on cabriole front legs terminating in brass and ceramic castors.

Upholstered in a charming woven wildflower fabric that gives the piece a bright, country-house feel, perfectly scaled as an elegant occasional seat for a drawing room or principal bedroom suite. The reverse of the back is fully finished, upholstered and polished to the same high standard as the front, allowing the piece to be placed confidently away from walls or beside a fireplace.

Very good antique condition with some minor surface wear consistent with age. Structurally sound, clean and ready to place in the home.

English, circa 1880.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Victorian salon chairs from the late nineteenth century typically feature carved hardwood frames, often in walnut or rosewood, with decorative openwork splats, cabriole or turned legs, and low-slung upholstered seats designed for drawing room reception areas.

Framing was primarily constructed from dense hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or rosewood. Upholstery employed traditional webbing, horsehair padding, steel coil springs, and woven textiles such as floral tapestry, velvet, or needlepoint.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery details, natural aged patina on the timber, original ceramic or brass castors on the front feet, and hand-tacked upholstery undersides rather than modern staple fastenings.

An antique salon chair functions as an accent piece in a contemporary bedroom, hallway, or dressing room, providing historical contrast against neutral walls and modern minimalist furniture.

Timber frames should be dusted with a soft cloth and conditioned periodically with natural beeswax polish. Tapestry fabric should be cleaned using light vacuuming with a soft brush attachment and kept out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
